Saskia West (sleeps 10 - 13) Vaujany

Our Verdict
A superb chalet well worth booking if available.
  • star

  • star

Chalet Saskia has consistently been the most popular choice in Vaujany since it was built in 2000. Thanks to the combination of its picture-postcard location on the south facing, sundrenched slopes of Vaujany and its smart and stylish interior, it has become the flagship chalet of Vaujany. The unique mirror-image design of the chalet allows it to be used as a whole, taking advantage of all ten fully en-suite bedrooms. Alternatively, the chalet can be divided for smaller groups into two identical and separate halves, each with their own lounge and dining areas, or booked on a room by room basis.

Indulgence Saskia style...

Start the day with a fresh chef-made breakfast - warm pastries and daily hot specials set you up for the day. Stroll 200 metres to the lift, or board your private shuttle where your rep will update you on all the latest snow news. Drop the kids at ski school and meet up with your ski leaders - experts at finding the best snow and the best restaurants. Relax back in the chalet with homemade afternoon tea, enjoying the sunshine and views from the terrace. If you still have the energy, visit the Vaujany swimming and gym complex, just 2 minutes walk from Chalet Saskia - kids will love the slide! Early evening - enjoy a traditional French aperitif with the best view in Vaujany, while the chalet hosts serve supper for the children. Now for Saskia's 'piece de resistance' - the cuisine. Soft music, candlelight and a roaring fire accompany a truly amazing culinary experience, paired with carefully selected French wines.

We have passed on any negative comment made to the holiday company concerned and hope that most, if not all, issues have been addressed for any future clients.

I just wanted to drop you a line on our return from our stay at Chalet Saskia over the Christmas week, our party all had a most wonderful holiday! Firstly, the quite unbelievable food from Marcus, dishes we would never have experienced but for his skill and passion in his kitchen. Secondly, the service we received from the moment we arrived from all the Saskia team was just right relaxed but highly attentive particularly from Mark who had just joined you apparently! Thirdly, Saskia catered for our family's needs perfectly, we have been skiing for over two decades and this holiday was one of our best. And finally, Vaujany, the Alp d'Huez 'grand domaine' and near perfect weather and snow conditions just made our time with you more memorable, many thanks.

The star rating for the ski hire shops is an indication of the level of service; quality and variety of stock, and the space and decor of the shop. It is also a reflection on the price. A five star rated shop will offer great service and equipment but also will charge the highest price. Ski hire shops with a two star rating have less variety and older, poorer quality of stock but are cheapest.

All prices and availability are subject to change by the tour operator. Therefore the price of your holiday can only be confirmed at the time of booking.
